[QUOTE="Ligurian, post: 77266953, member: 434210"] I actually have a question for you about that... how can "nature" be "interrupted" when it follows its own laws which define its characteristics? For "nature" to be thought of as something approaching the "nature of the thing" it must conform to its own definition... or its own definition of itself is faulty or misunderstood. Granted the fact that, in the natural universe, things happen in cycles, there must be some variation allowed that would encompass the expanding and contraction according to a given cycle... but not enough to be called a "miracle". For something to be miraculous, it would have to step outside the bounds of definition in such a way that the even the most broadly defined ideas of "variation" and "cycle" cannot contain it. And if "nature" does the miraculous often enough, then a new definition would have to be created... wouldn't it? [/QUOTE]
